Cavalier acquires NET Telcos to expand colocation and managed services in Mid-Atlantic
JANUARY 26, 2010 -- Cavalier Telephone LLC in Richmond, Va., which provides telecommunications services in the Eastern U.S., is acquiring NET Telcos in Glen Allen, Va., to expand colocation and managed services in the Mid-Atlantic region.NET Telcos provides colocation and managed services, and has a SAS 70-certified data center with more than 4,000 square feet of colocation space and managed services, including server virtualization, data backups, firewalls, and e-mail hosting.The NET Telcos acquisition will enable Cavalier to expand colocation and managed services to its current customers, who will gain access to the data center's server colocation, remote backup, disaster recovery, and server replication capabilities."As we grow our mid-market customer base, we see significant demand from corporate IT departments to reduce operating expenses and avoid large capital investments," says Danny Bottoms, president and chief executive officer of Cavalier."At the same time customers face significant requirements for uninterruptable service availability, backup and archiving," Bottoms says. "We will address these needs by combining a managed services product set from NET Telcos with affordable, reliable connectivity using our extensive fiber network."For existing NET Telcos customers, Cavalier's voice, data, IP and fiber network will enhance connectivity and service options throughout the region, Cavalier officials say.

BT Infinity fiber-based broadband prices set
JANUARY 22, 2010 -- BT Retail has revealed the pricing for its new broadband service, BT Infinity. The new consumer service uses fiber-optic technology to offer download speeds of up to 40 Mbps at a base price well below that of Virgin Media, the carrier asserts.BT Retail says it will offer the 40-Mbps rate for “as little as” £19.99 per month (a price offered when the subscriber also takes a BT line rental that costs from £11.54 per month), which it says is £7.47 less than what Virgin Media charges for its XXL highest speed service. Upstream speeds, at up to 10 Mbps, will be the fastest in the UK and more than 6X faster than Virgin Media’s fastest service, BT Retails adds. However, this upload speed currently is only available on a service tier that costs £24.99 monthly.Customers in Muswell Hill, Whitchurch, and Glasgow Halfway have had access to the higher speeds through a BT trial. BT says the new service will be made available to 4 million homes and businesses by the end of this year, following the roll out of the technology by Openreach, BT’s local access division. (See "BT to expand footprint for UK's fastest broadband")The announcement is part of BT’s longer-term program to make “super fast” broadband available to at least 40 percent of the UK, some 10 million homes and businesses, by the summer of 2012. The company has pledged to spend £1.5 billion to roll out fiber to the cabinet (FTTC) and fiber to the premises (FTTP) services. BT is also launching a new broadband service for businesses that will be known as BT Business Total Broadband Fibre.BT will begin availability of both the high-speed broadband services to BT Total Broadband and BT Business customers in enabled exchange areas beginning January 25.
